"Beautiful people all look alike. Each ugly person is ugly in his own way."
- Tolstoy
- lutusp 13y agoFor the record, that's not actually what Tolstoy said. He actually said, “All happy families are alike; each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.” I only post this because some people who don't read very much might propagate the prior non-quote and allow it to assume an authority through repetition that it doesn't have.
- waqf 13y agoFor the record, that's not actually what Tolstoy said either. He actually wrote, «Всѣ счастливыя семьи похожи другъ на друга, каждая несчастливая семья несчастлива по своему».
- booruguru 13y agoI was going to accuse you of being a pedantic, Captian Obvious, but I'll let this one pass...this time.
- lutusp 13y agoI only posted because if no one objects, non-quotations often take on a life of their own.
- xenophanes 13y agoYou didn't let it pass, though... You were mean to someone who 1) did something good 2) seems to care what you think and is defensive Shame on you.
- booruguru 13y agoI was just making a little joke. I sincerely didn't intend to be mean.
